The TAX YEAR runs from April 1st to March 31st; we bill semi-annually. 
The first issue bill is an estimated bill, based on the previous year's tax rate, usually half of the previous year's total unless there have been improvements made as of April 1st.
The second issue bill is mailed after the NH Department of Revenue sets the town's tax rate for the current year; you are then billed for the remainder of the tax year, less what you paid on your first issue bill.
